A 13-year-old girl from Alabama has been bullied for a long time. The bullying escalated to threats of bodily harm to her and her family.

According to Fox 6, the bullied girl’s mother, whose name has not been released, recently contacted local authorities after bullies reportedly told her daughter to commit suicide. If she refuses to adhere to their demands, they’ve also threatened to kill her family.

The thirteen year old has been teased and bullied all year, but now threats of bodily harm have escalated. The Mom stated that her daughter is receiving threatening messages through social media from two alleged bullies at her school. One of the threats, a disturbing image of an actual gun.

“Our families were threatened, houses to be blown up. It was just unreal that kids the age that we think is doing it would do something like that,” the mother said.

The 13 year old also has a message for all bullies. Bullying has lasting effects on victims and acknowledges that suicide is not a laughing matter.

“Nobody should ever have to go through this…I wouldn’t even put it on my worst enemy. I used to wake up and be happy about going to school so see my friends. Now I regret even waking up in the morning,” the bullied girl said. “People kill themselves because of this. Y’all are worth every second y’all are on this earth. Don’t ever think that you’re not because God put you on here for a reason,” she added.

Pickens County School Superintendent Jamie Chapman stated that local police were contacted. However, no further details have been released about the incident.
